Painting and bodywork are child's play to Tim! He even makes IronGard paint look like premium PPG paint!

As for "undates"....nope! I have been inundated with repair work from friends and neighbors. Currently, in my shop, there is another 102 with worn out clutches, a crappy MTD Troybilt lawn tractor that is beat, a Cyclone Rake vacuum and a Craftsman walk behind mower. I will get to my 72 when I can. The wheels and hood are at the powder coater...should have by end of week. I am hoping to get the donor chassis and fenders to the powder coater this week too.

Nice 72 so far! I agree on the statement about Tim!

Very nice job on a little guy that needed some TLC. Glad you got this one Beth and if the tractor could talk, without a doubt it would agree. Your father would be proud of what you have done. Kudos to you!!! Once its all done, what's the plan for it?

Very nice work Beth. I have a powder coat shop a couple miles from me, but have always heard it was expensive. Is it? :bigthink:

Thank you! It will be a trailer queen...or as my friend Frank says.."Ya got another paperweight".

That's what I thought. It looks very good though. I had a deck off a Gravley that I couldn't get the thing stripped. Turns out it was powder coated. Boy that thing was a pain in the a$$ getting stripped.:biggrin2:

Picked up the wheels, hood and foot treads from the powder coater!
They look terrific....pictures don't do them justice. Thought I would add hood latches too!
Before and after....
